If you stray too far from the T/R mechanic, you're not creating a divine feat -- you're creating a spell.Plus, these feats shouldn't (exactly) reproduce a spell effect.And, since turning is useful only on undead, a divine feat that is usable on other than just undead should have a more limited power.I'm really disappointed in the divine feats of DotF. Most don't really have any connection to T/R beyond as a prerequisite. And why should extra turning be a prerequisite for so many? You must increase your potential usages before you can get the use for it?Quasqueton</blockquote>
